Today at @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social, I called out the truth: Trump’s tariff policy is a pay-to-play system.
If you pay for access, you get tariff exemptions.
If you’re an average American who already paid an extra $1,700 for basics due to Trump's illegal tariffs, you get nothing.

His vindictive, anti-science agenda against clean energy has driven Americans deeper into an affordability crisis. Household electric bills increased by around $110 in 2025 vs 2024, clean energy jobs have been lost or delayed, all while Trump prioritize polluting our planet.
This #EarthDay, Trump is hurting our planet, and the American people.

Rep. Ansari is an incredible Member of Congress, fiercely dedicated to serving women and families in her community and across the country.
The threats to her, her family, and her staff are horrifying and wrong.
We stand with Rep. Ansari and against political violence—today and everyday.
Today at @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social, we exposed how Trump is corrupting the FDA’s integrity by fast-tracking his buddies and greenlighting products based on connections, not credibility. Americans deserve safe, effective treatments they can trust, not approvals driven by politics.
The experts are worried. And you should be too.
Even Trump’s own Energy Secretary admits his claim that gas price increases would be “short-term” is a lie.
Gas is now over $4 nationally, and $5.85 in California. Americans are paying the price for Trump’s disastrous leadership.
This cannot continue. Congress must pass meaningful gun violence prevention laws now.
Three years ago, my district was shattered by the Monterey Park mass shooting, where 11 of our neighbors were killed--the deadliest mass shooting in LA County history.
How many more anniversaries? How many more communities?
Yesterday, 8 children were killed in Louisiana in the deadliest U.S. mass shooting since 2024.
Today is the 27th anniversary of the Columbine High School massacre, where 13 lives were taken.
Last month, I joined thousands of our neighbors across the San Gabriel Valley to reject Trump’s corruption and continue the fight to protect our democracy. #NoKings
That’s why this week, I joined
@anca-dc.bsky.social and @armenianassembly.bsky.social to honor the more than 1.5 million lives lost, continue to share their stories, and stand with the Armenian community to uphold their security and democracy.
The Armenian genocide is a historical fact, end of story. For far too long, families were forced to carry their stories without the recognition they deserve.
Her death was felt throughout the research community, especially by those of Asian descent who faced unjust scrutiny from Trump's China Initiative.
Elizabeth reminded us that there's a human cost to this targeting and that our greatest minds should never have to face this type of ethnic profiling.
Yesterday, I listened to Elizabeth Rao’s heartbreaking story about losing her mother, Dr. Jane Wu. A dedicated Chinese American scientist, Dr. Wu faced discrimination and racial profiling by her employers, leading her to take her own life.
Then, Republicans tore it up and handed all the power to Trump, both to choose a location and to decide the content of the museum.
My @demwomencaucus.bsky.social colleagues and I will continue to fight until the original bill is restored, where we celebrate and honor ALL women.
For years, we worked with Republicans to build support for a bipartisan bill to finally secure a prominent site on the mall for the Smithsonian American Women's History Museum.

For years, we’ve led a bipartisan effort to advance the Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum and National Museum of the American Latino.
The Trump Administration is ignoring the childcare affordability crisis. They are saying they can't help families and children here at home because we have wars to fund. It's a slap in the face to every American.
During yesterday's @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social hearing, I asked RFK Jr. if he agrees with eliminating childcare grants. He wouldn't answer me straight.
